Traveling The World Will Change Your Life

The best investment in life is traveling.

Traveling The World Will Change Your Life

I know that I am not the only one who dreams of traveling the world! I could say that I have been dreaming of traveling since I was a little girl. I want to see new places, eat new cuisine, learn about new cultures, and meet new people. It is amazing to know that this world is so big with so many different kinds of people out there. I know I will travel the world sometime in the future, or I might end up deciding to take a trip next month! Sometimes I wonder if I will travel alone, or with my future love (which would be amazing).

Sharing new experiences with someone you love would be an awesome experience, but doing some travel alone wouldn’t be bad either. It would be the perfect time to think and reconnect with yourself.

Every place in this world has a story, every city holds a myth, every culture has their art work.
I want to walk where Jesus walked (Jerusalem), I want to see the pyramids (Egypt), I want to go kiss someone special in “El Callejon Del Beso” (Guanajuato, Mexico) or go see Aurora Borealis(Alaska, U.S.). I just want to get to know every place. I want to know the stories within its buildings and people

I have been blessed to travel around some places within the U.S. and Mexico. My first plane ride was when I was two years old. I went to Mexico City from Omaha, Nebraska. You can say my family kinda started my dream of traveling. I remember getting on planes every summer and just thinking, I could go anywhere in the world, and to this day I hop on a plane and still have the same thought. Recently, I have been able to afford to travel on my own, and I have learned that the best investment anyone could make is travel time.

I could honestly waste $400 on a brand new hot pink Michael Kors bag (and the excitement of having that bag would be gone within a month) OR I could spend $400 or more on a travel experience and those memories and excitement would last a lifetime. I can for sure guarantee you that my future investments will go into traveling. The best advice I could give you is to travel now that you can, and if you know you have the money. Enjoy life, live to the fullest; make memories that will for sure make you smile every time you look back.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
